Globalism - Parallel Networks Crashing in Economic Crisis - Please pass this to all people of good will worldwide - tell them it's time to unite in a new Solidarity movement
We live in a world of new networks but many of them run in parallel fashions never touching. Instead they contradict one another. The workday has been devastated. The free enterprse system is under attack by what is called the free market which is anything but free. Free trade is part of it and it too is not free. It is not even really trade as traditionally practiced and defined It is primarily about moving production from place to place anywhere in the world for the sake of cheaper labor costs. Our economies based on making money on money instead of making things in balance geopolitical settings are burning out and crashing. It is time to find other ways.
We mix our thoughts with major experts in the field of economics,
sociology, business and philosophy. Among them are Manuel Castells, Sir James Goldsmith, Jacque Maritain, Chuck Harder and Dr Pat Choate. We add this to our own life-time varied experiences which include more than sixty years in the work world.
Philosophy has been in a dormant state for many years and it is apparent that most of our current economic and cultural problems are tied to this missing discipline. Most of the philosophy studies today are just reviews of past philosophical insights. We have come to a time in history when someone running for president of the United States, says Jesus was his favorite philosopher. Philosophy is now confused with religion and faith Many in our society attack philosophy as being a religion but the ultimate pursuit of truth is based on the study of being as being. Philosophy can bring you to the door of faith but can not get you through it. Jesus is Faith itself and the only way to get it is to accept that Jesus is the way through the door.
A few weeks ago, I reviewed a book by a friend who is a Philosopophy professor at a semminary. In some respects, he is the token philosopher onsite because of the past dependence of philosophy that once confirmed man search for truth is not only based on faith but on a logical reasoning too. In re-reading parts of his book, It told me what is basically wrong with the state of things today including culturally , politically and economically. We are living in a time where the Sophist control events.
Socrates challenged us centuries ago about only accepting usefull goods
as a way to live rather than seeking the ideal and the common good. Useful goods and pragmatism keeps things going but in many cases can be intrinically evil and contaminates the order of things with many damaging ramifications.
As those who read any of my sites and blogs with many being online since 1998, they know that my main advocacy which I feel is my ministry is human dignity in the workday. It is the place where we spend most of our time and should be a place of active worship by offering the things we do in making a living to the Lord. It is a 100 percent deal with our Creator. God is not a part-time worker and our whole day belongs to Him.
We live in a time where elite groupings control events in a form of Globalism marked by the so called free market and free trade. All " isms
" are one being globalized by the money changers of our times. They
have unleashed massive productions of goods and services but it stands as a network all its own serving primarily the masters of money. Businesses can decentralize, relocate, automate, go offshore,
subcontract, outsource or whatever. Production, factories and farms can be moved from place to place for the sake of cheaper labor costs and the least amount of resistance and regulations. Everytime something is moved, a burn out community is left behnd detached from the whole. Another network takes its place running in parallel fashion leaving the needs of a given community open to many voids. In the end, as we see today, the social cost and the financial cost, in terms of burned-out people, burned out captial, burned-out societies, will drag down the business
productivity as well. (
From the thoughts of Manuel Castells more then ten years ago. )
And now we are seeing our economies based on making money on money instead of making things in balanced geopolitical settings, burning out. The money changers are anxiously throwing more money at the problems but it all goes up as smoke in the burning-out process.
The globalist free traders use Adam Smith to defend their ways but Adam Smith held labor and the workday as something sacred and the core of all society. The globalist free trader money changers leave local communities and workers behind as they rush to a new world order. Workers networks are isolated from one another. Local value economies are in a state of desparate conditions where people seek being rescued by even gambling casinos while the globalist free trader money changers play a giant monopoloy game in a gobal casino. There are no roots or anchors and society is fragmenting finding no way to bring itself together.
Hopefully, in the process of splintering, new smaller communities will come forth to counter the centralization process. Hopefully, these smaller communities will be networks that find ways to connect with one another.
As it stands now, the networks of our time are running in parallet fashion and not connecting with one another and if you are not part of any network in this globalist free trader money changer world, you do no longer exists. There was a time in Rome, when it was better to be a slave than a freeman. Today, the existence of a freeman is being challenged. They are being forced to go outside the cities and centers of control to find the life ideal.
The networks unconnected to one another are finding it difficult to protect sovereignty and governments act more like power brokers in a world of shifting alliances. Individual nations are finding it difficult to control their currencies or support all the entitlements created during the past century. The free trader globalist money changers contain all the "isms" of our times in one network in the globalization of money. It may have combined the "isms" under the the priority of greed but history tells us what happens when the state of the worker and workworld is degraded to the level of wage slaves with a world full of over production and not in sync with much of anything. It too is a parallel network going its own separate way.
We are still haunted by the bible rendition of community and the workday. The part that says they lived in community and shared everything in common is still many try to emulate. However, people like Alan Greenspan devotes a major part of this book - The Age of Tubulence bombing out the New Harmony workers community in the late 1880s as a failed experiment of idealists out of touch with the realities of what it takes to balance out human nature in the real world. He cites the free market as the only way but leaves out the part when raw capitalism takes over. Lech Walesa, the leader of the Solidarity movement in Poland , and who played a major role in the fall of the Communist empire, says the U.S.A. has lost its way . He also said, - I know very little about business and economics, but something is very wrong when ten percent of the population controls 100 percent of the wealth --. Greenspan says Capitalism is the best answer for the flaws in human nature. Human nature ends up being on trial for our economic crisis. Consumers are a parallel network out of touch with the whole too. Workers as shoppers, shop their way out of their jobs and vote more in the cash register line than they do a voting booth. Too many say that it is only human nature to shop for the cheapest prices no matter what. The globalist free trader money changers take advantage of this tendency.
In looking at all the problems we face today during an economic crisis that was caused by the globalist free trader money changers, we first have to ask ourselves some questions with the first being why do we gather together in communities, states and nations separate from one ananother. We do this because as a people, we evidently are not ready to handle things in any global fashion. We have found out that centralization of anything brings both the good and the bad in a quick way but the bad which was once more decentralized into more controllable segments. Any sophist approach to pushing useful goods in an forced method brings with it many intrinsic evil results.
Pope Benedict in his economic encyclical, says society should practice subsidiarity which means all things should be decided at the lowest levels possible. Liberatarians say as much too but somehow want this to happen in universal ways and one size fits all fashion. They hold the free market as something sacred but never really defined what is needed to make sure it is a level playing field. Liberals tend to make the parts greater than the whole and never seem to be able to latch on any first principles. Conservatives claim they are for the free market but stand aside in any anything goes business environment while making money off those who are suffering in this environment. Again they too are sophists in taking advantage of useful goods without discerning was is and what is not intrinsically evil in the practice of raw Capitalism. Communists and Socialists say they are for the greatest good for the greatest number but the number seeems to add up to only very elite grouping that controls the masses.
All these things are now smashing up against each other while the globalist free trader money changers still keep trying to force the issue. They have failed in their quest to gather all in one in the world and their attempts at the globalization of money as a product all its own have failed too.
As more and more elements and networks separate from one another, it may be time to think in new communitarian ways knowing that one size does not fit all and that decentralization is better than centralization as Federalism is finding it impossible to control all the parallel networks that are out of control. It is time to think local and practiced subsidiarity where everything is decided at the most lowest level possible. What we have now is out of control due to globalist free trader money changers who have no idea on how to stop the global race to the bottom. There really are no winners .
